Door locks

Post by RW »

Hi All,

My 98 V-70 rear passenger door lock seems to be very stuck. We went on a trip, did not take the Volvo. But a week ago it worked fine. I was hitting the key fob switch this morning and nothing. My daughter may have pulle that handle so I tried it again and nothing. I tried to unlock it using the switch inside to no avail. I then attempted to manually unlock the door which did not work either.

Any ideas on how I can open the door, or at least remove the door panel so that I can fix the lock, or does someone know an easy fix?

Thanks,
RW

Help keep MVS on the web -> click sponsors' links here on MVS when you buy from them.

I guess I did not explain this well. Only one lock is not working. The left rear door. I cannot open this door, Does anyone know of a way to remove the door panel with the door shut as I can not open it, and need to access the lock mechanism.
